New family of brushless DC servomotors available from EMS

EMS has unveiled a new family of brushless DC servomotors, suitable for demanding positioning tasks in areas such as optics and photonics, medical device technology and robotics.

The 8 and 10mm devices are said to combine power, robustness, high resolution feedback and high continuous torque (1.1 and 2.1Nm respectively). They also offer an ultra low mechanical time constant of just 2ms. Both devices are available with a high resolution integrated encoder as standard, without additional length or extra cost. The encoder is available as a flexible three channel incremental version with resolution from 1 to 1024CPR, or as a 12Bit single turn absolute encoder. A single flex-board provides connections for voltage supply of the encoder and motor and of the output signals.
